Investigating the central place theory using trajectory big data.
Article in Fundamental research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The human settlement system is central to land use, infrastructure development, and environmental impacts. Although central place theory (CPT) was proposed about 90 years ago and has been extensively examined by many researchers, to what extent CPT can explain the current rural settlement system in the changing age of informatization and geospatial reconstruction remains to be explored. This paper aims to contribute fresh evidence for settlement systems and examine the applicability of CPT's quantitative laws by using the trajectory data of 2.0362 billion trips from 37.53 million mobile phone users in China's Jing-Jin-Ji region (218,000 km
